The Jeddah Superdome (JSD; Arabic: جدة سوبر دوم) is a 35,000 seat multi-purpose event space located on Madinah Road, west of King Abdullah Sports City, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Since its opening in mid-2021, it hosts all local and international exhibitions, conferences, and events in the city.[1][2]

With 210m diameter, 46m height, and 34,636 square meters of covered area, the JSD became instantly notable for breaking two related building structure records: it is now the largest continuous (non-segmented, non-openable) dome,[3] a record previously held by the Caesars Superdome,[4] and the world’s largest geodesic dome.[5]
